Scan Competitor AI Presence

scan_competitor_ai_presence
Read-onlyIdempotent

Compare AI visibility across multiple entities side-by-side. Probes each entity (your brand + N competitors) with ai_visibility_check, ranks by score, surfaces which is most/least recognized. Useful for competitive AI-marketing audits: "does Claude know about us as well as our competitors?". Returns ranked list with score, confidence, signal density per entity.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
modelsNoWhich models to probe. Supported: "workers-ai" (free default), "anthropic" (requires _apiKey). Omit for just workers-ai.
_apiKeyNoOptional Anthropic API key — only if "anthropic" is in models. Passed to api.anthropic.com per probe.
contextNoOptional shared context applied to every probe (e.g. "B2B SaaS", "Boston restaurant"). Disambiguates common names.
entitiesYesArray of 2-8 entities to compare (brand/business/product names). First entry treated as the "subject" for narrative; rest are competitors.

TDQS

A4.1/5.0
Behavior4/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already declare readOnly, idempotent, openWorld, non-destructive. Description adds that it probes each entity with ai_visibility_check and returns ranked list with score, confidence, signal density—beyond what annotations provide.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Description is four sentences, front-loaded with purpose, efficient but not excessively brief. No redundancy, each sentence adds value.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given no output schema, description adequately explains return format (ranked list with score, confidence, signal density). Also covers purpose and usage. Missing details on models and _apiKey but those are documented in schema.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. Description does not add new parameter details beyond what schema already describes; it refers to entities and context in a general way.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Clearly states it compares AI visibility across multiple entities side-by-side, using ai_visibility_check, and returns a ranked list. Distinguished from sibling ai_visibility_check which is for single entity.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Explicitly mentions use case (competitive AI-marketing audits) and references ai_visibility_check as the probe tool, implicitly suggesting when to use this over a single check. No explicit when-not-to-use, but context is clear.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

A3.8/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

Many tools are clearly distinct, but the existence of multiple ask_pipeworx variants (standard, beta, grounded) and the overlapping check_risk/lookup_ip tools create meaningful selection ambiguity. Description differentiation helps but doesn't fully resolve it.

Naming Consistency3/5

All names use snake_case, but conventions vary between verb-noun (lookup_ip, compare_entities), noun phrases (entity_profile, recent_alerts), and domain-prefixed names (polymarket_edges, pipeworx_trending). It's readable but not a consistent pattern.

Tool Count2/5

At 33 tools the surface is large, with duplicated ask_pipeworx variants, a modest IP lookup core, and a large number of meta/management tools (memory, subscriptions, onboarding, feedback). Even with a broad scope this feels overloaded, and it is well above the 25+ threshold.

Completeness4/5

The query domain is well covered: entity profiles, comparison, claim validation, deep research, changes, plus memory and subscription management. Minor gaps exist (no direct subscription update, no raw citation fetch utility), but agents can work around them.
